Cheddar Grge is like nthing else in the UK. It’s a unique phenmenn, because althugh there are ther caves in the cuntry, yu dn’t have the grge elsewhere. This is a majr gelgical feature. It’s three miles lng and there’s just this natural, raw beauty. I can sit at my desk in guest services and lkut at part f the grge. It’s amazing.
The Cheddar Grge spirit is strng. Yu knw, nt having wrked here r heard abut the area, yu cme here and it gets under yur skin in the right way. Yu becme part f it, it becmes part f yu.

Every day at Cheddar Grge and Caves is different. Yu’ve gt the rck sprts side f things, the climbing, the caving. We take peple thrugh the caves n turs and we have prehistry, which we d with the museum, whereby we have schls cme in and d demnstratins with them. We will dress up as genuinely as we can t reprduce the time perid f the Cheddar Man, which is the Meslithic perid, s 10, 000 years ag. We d fire lighting, fr example, and hpefully it’s inspiring t the yung peple! It’s really cl t be in the museum garden and have part f the grge as the backgrund while yu’re ding it s yu can really submerge yurself in that mment.
My favurite spt is when yu g past the peak n the walk and yu can lk back dwn int the grge r acrss t the reservir. The view is amazing. Yes, yu can see pictures f it, but hnestly yu have t be there t fully appreciate it. Yu might hear sme buzzards r see sme sheep r gats while yu’re up there, just t enhance the experience!

T study the behavir f wild animals, scientists rutinely tag them with slar-pwered GPS lcatin trackers. But such devices’ battery capacity limits hw lng they perate, ften bringing a nearly end t vital cnservatin wrk. Slar-pwered trackers break easily, making them a pr chice fr devices fastened t larger mammals and they dn’t wrk fr night creatures.
S bilgist Rasmus Wrse Havmller f the University f Cpenhagen and his clleagues turned t anther abundant pwer surce: kinetic energy generated by an animal’s mvements. It is als lighter and cheaper t make than its battery-pwered cunterparts(对应的事物). “The design is creative and exciting,” says Mark Hebblewhite, a habitat eclgist at the University f Mntana. The prf-f-cncept kinetic tracker wrks by means f a magnetic pendulum(摆钟) that swings arund a cpper cil, generating electricity as it mves.
Their kinetic tracker, which Havmller’s team recently tested n dmestic dgs, a wild pny and a Eurpean bisn, culd theretically survive fr the entire lifespan f an active animal. The dgs and the bisn in the study were active enugh t create the energy t transmit ne lcatin signal per day fr 14 days and 17 days, respectively. Hwever, ne f the less active wild pny’s trackers lasted at least 146 days but didn’t prduce enugh pwer fr daily transmissins, the researchers reprted in PLOS ONE. The limited pwer generated by the animals’ mvements means the technlgy isn’t ready fr primetime just yet, says eclgist Emily Studd f British Clumbia’s Thmpsn Rivers University, wh wasn’t invlved in the study.
When researchers want t keep clse tabs n animals, they ften need GPS fixes mre than nce a day. But Studd says that “with a bit mre develpment, this culd be a game changer fr wildlife animal research and mnitring.”
Rasmus and his clleagues hpe cnservatin wrkers can ne day use this technlgy t track species such as tigers, lepards and wlves, which can easily destry slar-pwered trackers and which hunt and travel at night. 28. What is paragraph 1 mainly abut?
A. The capacity f slar-pwered GPS lcatin trackers.
B. The limitatins f slar-pwered GPS lcatin trackers.
C. The imprtance f cnservatin effrts fr wild animals.
D. The challenges faced by scientists in tagging wild animals.
29. What is the pwer surce f the new tracker?
A. The sun.B. The battery.C. The animal.D. The pendulum.
30. What can we learn frm the research?
A. The dgs had a lw level f activity.
B. The kinetic tracker ften functins imprperly.
C. The research needs mre scientists t get invlved.
D. High levels f activity may lead t cnsistent transmissins.
31. What can be a suitable title fr this passage?
A. Trackers and Animals Can Cexist
B. New Wildlife Trackers Run n Animal Pwer
C. Kinetic Trackers Outperfrm Slar-pwered Trackers
D. Technlgy Prgress Cntributes t Wildlife Cnservatin
D
When we think abut lives filled with meaning, we ften fcus n peple whse grand cntributins benefited humanity. Abraham Lincln, Martin Luther King and Nelsn Mandela surely felt they had a wrthwhile life. But hw abut us rdinary peple, struggling in atypical existence?
There is an imprtant element t cnsider. Think abut the first butterfly yu stp t admire after a lng winter r imagine the scenery at the tp f a hill after a fresh hike. Smetimes existence delivers us small mments f beauty. When peple are pen t appreciating such experiences, these mments may enhance hw they view their life. This element is defined as EA (experiential appreciatin) by Jshua Hicks, a psychlgical prfessr at Texas A&M University.
Recently, he and his research team set ut t figure ut whether EA was related t a persn’s sense f meaning in a series f studies that invlved mre than 3, 000 participants. At an initial test, researchers had participants rate their agreement f different cping strategies t relieve their stress. They fund peple wh managed stress by fcusing n their appreciatin fr life’s beauty als reprted experiencing life as highly meaningful.
Researchers then cnducted a series f experiments, in which they gave participants specific tasks and, nce mre, asked them t reprt hw strngly they identified with statements linked t purpse, etc. In ne case, participants wh watched an awe-inspiring vide reprted having a greater sense f EA and meaning in life, cmpared with thse wh watched mre neutral vides. After reflecting n the results cllected frm the participants, researchers cnfirmed their riginal thery.
But applying that insight can be difficult. Our mdern, fast-paced, prject-riented lifestyles fill the day with targets and gals. We are n the g, and we attempt t maximize utput bth at wrk and at leisure.
This fcus n future utcmes makes it all t easy t miss what is happening right nw. Yet life happens in the present mment. We shuld slwdwn, let life surprise us and embrace the significance in the everyday life.
32. Why are the butterfly and the scenery n a hill mentined in paragraph 2?
A. T intrduce a cncept.B. T attract readers’ interest.
C. T demnstrate the beauty f nature.D. T shw the necessity f prtecting nature.
33. Hw did the researchers cnduct the study?
A. By designing different strategies t reduce stress.
B. By studying previus research data.
C. By shting vides starring the participants.
D. By analyzing the respnse frm the participants.
34. Wh tends t find life mre meaningful accrding t the text?
A. A persn wh always gets her life well-rganized.
B. A persn wh ften hears mtivating speeches.
C. A persn wh leads a fast-paced life.
D. A persn wh always expects future results.
35. What life philsphy des the authr shw in the last paragraph?
A. N pains, n gains.
B. Thse wh believe in their ability can d anything
C. Live yur life ne day at a time.
D. Always prepare fr a rainy day.

It had been a challenging week, marked by a sudden large increase in il prices with a sharp drp in temperatures in Bstn. It was nearly belw zer degree. With three wrkdays missed, my upcming paycheck was ging t be lwer than nrmal. The stress weighed heavily n me as I carefully sught every pssible pprtunity t save pennies, ensuring that I culd affrd bth grceries and keep the huse warm.
My eight-year-lds n didn’t understand when I tld him we were struggling that week. He had his heart set n a particular brand f ygurt, but I didn’t have the extra three dllars t buy it fr him. It was the kind f ygurt decrated with a cartn child skatebarding n its packaging, cntaining a mere tw spnfuls per cup. Such prducts, designed t attract children with their flashy marketing, nly served t make me hate advertising.
Hwever, a bunch f parental guilt seized me as his inncent eyes met mine, silently questining, “Why is ygurt such a big deal?” Determined t sweep his disappintment, I made a sacrifice typical f single mthers. I returned an item needed t the shelf, ensuring that he culd enjy his favrite ygurt.
On the jurney back frm the grcery stre, a sight caught my attentin—a hmeless man hlding a sign by the radside. My heartache d, and I turned arund, bserving passers-by purpsefully steer(绕开) clear f him, aviding any meaningful interactin. Even my sn didn’t seem t care much, either. Yet, upn clser inspectin, I nticed the man—bare hands grasping a piece f cardbard, s nt(鼻涕) frzen t his face, a wrn-ut jacket. And there I was struggling because I had t buy il and grceries. But I decided t help. I pulled ver t the man and handed him a five-dllar bill.

My wrds seemed t resnate with him a she ndded thughtfully, as park f understanding lighting up his face.

Handing it ver, he said, “I think yu might be hungry.” The man’s eyes sftened, his face breaking int a grateful smile a she accepted the ygurt. Watching this, l felt a surge f pride fr my sn’s unexpected gesture f kindness. It was a pignant renin der that true genersity cmes frm a wiling heart, nt frm the abundance f what we have.
